Managing Executive Health

'Our research shows that almost 100% of executives, managers and professionals become dissonant within themselves and with others due to the ravages of chronic stress. The sad fact is that most never recover and doom themselves to less effective, less sustainable performance – not to mention a less exciting life. Most books about executive health and stress make you feel guilty and worry - this one creates hope. Read it, it could save your life!' Richard Boyatzis, Case Western Reserve University and co-author of the international best seller Primal Leadership, Resonant Leadership and Becoming a Resonant Leader
'According the EU Lisbon Strategy, what Europe needs for health and development of its population is 'more and better jobs.' Optimal executive health is absolutely essential for achieving this. I know of no better text to promote such a development than the one now prepared by Quick et al. It should be compulsory reading in every business school and board room, worldwide.' Lennart Levi, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm
'This book is long overdue. Managing Executive Health convincingly builds a well documented case for the authors' contention that physical health and psychological well-being form the necessary base from which sustained high performance can be successfully realized.' Jim Loehr, Human Performance Institute and best-selling co-author of The Power of Full Engagement
'A comprehensive analysis of the pitfalls and stresses associated with leadership and why current conditions are contributing to an increase in these problems and their adverse fiscal and health effects. This concise volume contains numerous useful suggestions on how to prevent or minimize such complications so that executives can learn how to become more productive and less self destructive.' Paul J. Rosch, The American Institute of Stress; Clinical Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry, New York Medical College
